VideoLab is a set of components, based on OpenWire technology for fast video capture, playback, broadcasting and processing. They allow fast complex video manipulations with zero lines of program code.

VideoLab supports both the old fashion Win32 API (VFW), Audio ACM and DirectShow (DirectX), and even allows if needed any mixture of them. The developer can choose to go with any of them, to use both, or can switch from the one to the other at any moment. The components hide the complexity of both approaches, and make them look almost identical from the users prospective.

The library is fully multithreaded, utilizes well modern multi-core systems, and runs at full native performance.
